Possibly the worst night in Irish sporting history took place on February 15th, 1995 at Lansdowne Road stadium in Dublin, on the occasion of a friendly soccer international between England and the Republic of Ireland. The event degenerated into violence during the first half and eventually had to be called off after right-wing British fans gave Nazi salutes and threw missiles.
